Create-A-Flavor Contest: High Desert Ecigs

[TotalTiffy]

It has been brought to our attention that some of your might feel like the prizes chosen for this contest seem to be inadequate compared to other vendors similar contests. I am sorry if you feel this way, please try to keep in mind that we are very new and this company was founded with limited resources. And our contest prizes reflect that. We have an obligation to work within our means in order to be able to continue providing competitive pricing that we are offering.

What we lack in substantial capital we hoped to make up for with low prices and superior customer service and grow the company that way. I know the competition is steep out there and there are still a few excellent vendors out there who care more about their customers than they do making huge profits. We are trying to craft an image that directly reflects this type of business attitude.

I very much appreciate everyone's participation in this contest and I know that we are all working with limited resources. We ask that you do not go out of your way or waste any of your own resources for this contest. The primary reason we started this was to get an idea of what our customers and potential customers want, while rewarding as many people as possible without breaking the bank. You do not need to post exact recipes if you do not know them, your general ideas and rough estimates are fine as well. I hope you all understand and again I apologize if the prizes for this contest do not meet your expectations.

Best Regards,
~Brewtus

10ml and credit for creating a new flavour is awesome enough. Doesn't matter what you are giving away. A prize is a prize!

I'm right there with you Brewtus, I happen to like the pizza vape at times; but only on occasion. Gotta see my minty pizza review that I did on a dare Minty pizza vape - YouTube

Got another flavor idea that I'm about to work on now, I'll post it in a bit after I get an idea of how it is.

 

[Brewtus]

Minty pizza, hmmm, don't know how to feel about that one. But I will try anything once. Ha!

Way to go on the suggestions folks, I really like where this is going. We've got some from mild to wild, I like! Keep up the good work.

My Fiance's Suggestion

Rye & Coke with a twist

20% Whiskey/Rye
70% Coke
10% Lime

 

[Pamdane]

Blueberry Punch
13% Blueberry Flavoring
5% REAL rum.
add PG/VG at desired ratio. Heat to just BELOW boil(no alcohol will remain, just the flavor).
Depending on how much VG you use, you will need to tweek the flavor %'s.

If you like an anise vape, and I have never seen one, I created one by mistake.

15% TPA Blueberry
5% TPA French Vanilla
after 3 weeks steeping, it is anise!

And thanks for the contest!!!

Great suggestions here-- I wish I had more to offer at this point I'm just fiddling/learning with juice creation. I do have until December 31st to come up with something so who knows.

Brewtus thank you for the contest-- you're a class act sir and you don't have to explain to anybody regarding prizes. Your customer service speaks for itself in my book.

Ok will call this one "Midnight Snack"

40% chocolate
20% vanilla creme
40% Oatmeal

This is a adaption of my "midnight snacks" I used to sneak while everyone in the house was sleeping. Swiss rolls and Oatmeal creme pies LOL And because I don't binge eat anymore I'm not afraid to say I would eat whole boxes of them at once hahahahaha

And Brewtus as everyone else is saying no need to explain it's a awesome contest

 

[Brewtus]

Thanks for the support everyone. Your the reason why we are here. =)

We are officially snowed in today, so I may start experimenting tonight on some of these. I'll take some pics in a bit and post for everyone to see.

Thanks for everyone's suggestions, I really do appreciate your feedback.

Ok, I've been working on my recipe, here's what I have so far:

Strawberry Malted Milk Ball

5ml 40/60 PG/VG 10mg base

5 drops/.2ml/3.7% LA Strawberry
9 drops/.36ml/6.5% TPA Malted Milk
1 drop/.04ml/<1% FA Cookie

It's really really good, a nice sweet creamy strawberry. I'm gonna try it again tonight and maybe add 1 more drop of cookie. I've been vaping this almost constantly since I made it last night! It's so GOOD!

You guys have snow in NM?

 

[Brewtus]

You guys have snow in NM?

Haha, where I live we do. It sits at a little over 7000 feet in a very mountain-y part of NM, so it get's a fair amount of snow. It's a bit of a shock for me as I have lived in the city all of my life until this year.

Just a quickie bump bump to keep this thread going. How about some more chocolate suggestions from all you choco-holics as my wife has labeled herself. Her suggestion was chocolate menthol...sounded kinda gross to me but I figured I throw it into the mix and see what you guys thought.

Don't forget to vote for this contest by "liking" (did I spell that right?) the submissions that sound goo to you. Remember it only takes half a second to vote. =)

 

[Prettycat191]

Chocolate menthol would be like Andes' mints or a peppermint patty lol, chocolate and mint are a common combination!

I have as yet to find a true chocolate flavor, but I've seen suggestions to add coconut and other things to make it taste better. All of the chocolates that I have taste and smell like those nasty chocolate jelly belly beans lol.

 

[AmandaMarie]

I'm down for the Choc/mint...make it a really bright crisp mint and a rich smooth chocolate .
Also...
Chocolate blueberry...I have had a Choc/raspberry but it was too tart.I think a sweet blueberry with the chocolate would be delicious ...

 

[Brewtus]

Yeah I guess it would be like chocolate mint... I need some coffee.

 

[Sdh]

A quick suggestion for those who love menthol with a cooling sensation. Koolada with any fruit. I personally love Lemon Ice.
I use flavourart Lemon Sicily with a light touch of Koolada. 5-10% lemon Sicily(or lemon flavor of your choice) and 1 to 2% koolada. For those really brave and wanting to: add a touch of menthol.

Mix at your own risk...it can be addicting. (My motto is mix less-add later).

I have never tasted a good chocolate menthol. I tried some peppermint patty type. Disgusting. However, I am not into foo-foo flavors. The lemon ice or oba oba are my limits with non tobacco flavors.

 

[thehangdude]

I like just a bit of chocolate with a nutty tobacco.

 

[thehangdude]

My other chocolate suggestion would be with banana. A chunky monkey kind of Vape.

 

[Brewtus]

mmmm, ben and jerry's chunk monkey is delicious! great suggestion

 

[Brewtus]

Morning bump, time for some coffee. Just FYI we placed a large order with flavor west last night so we should have 46 new flavors arriving early next week. =)
